Lazytown x Pokémon As Trainers!

Part 1

In the midst of my art block and overflowing mountain of WIPS, I had the impulsive idea to draw the characters as Pokémon trainers :D

... Including a Team Rocket member, too.

Thanks, Glanni 💀

It all started with me having the epiphany that, yes, I could 100% see Robbie with a Magnemite.

I have a whole second roster of characters lined up for the same idea, so keep an eye out for it! 😌

[silly-lazytown-polls]

Today's poll brought to you by the realization that...

Charlie Bucket -> Stephanie Augustus Gloop -> Ziggy Veruca Salt -> Stingy Violet Beauregarde -> Trixie Mike Teavee -> Pixel

[kitty-lennon]

YO YO YO YO YO PIXEL AND JIVES!!! From the infamous musical ofc

I hc them being teens hanging around the kids bc they're fun and no adults watch over them like they should HAGZGZ

Jives is so cool it's really one of my favourites from the musical

[agirlwholovesspe33d]

Ok, so I was watching The LazyTown Circus and had two ideas on what Jives could have done if he was in the show. 1.- He'd just be watching the circus shinanigans with Milford and Bessie 2.- He'd be the Lion and is just really good at doing animal sounds. Hence why Robbie said "Could you hold this?"

I remember having a disc with Icelandic series "LazyTown" (two seasons). The music on the menu always sounded somehow melancholic, or mournful... It was alarming, in general. But the episode "Little Sportacus" is amazing. I never thought about what the dynamic of Sportacus and Stephanie would be like if the former was her peer, but the show thought for me...

My friend Anya once sent me a TikTok and expressed a very interesting idea that Sportacus/Stephanie is a very glass BROTP. After all, Sportacus always wanted to be Steph's best friend, like, you know, peers. So he dreamed of becoming a teenager again, so he could grow up with her.

Did I mention that I love the way Anya delves into details?

And I've already continued her thought that in the original (theatrical) lore, Sportacus was a sports elf. According to my headcanons, this race is small in number and prefers to live in small families (parents and children). Sportacus' mother died when he was a child, and he was raised by his father (possibly the previous hero of LazyTown).

When Ziggy tells little Sportacus to act like a child in that episode, he doesn't really understand what to do. The reason may be that sports elves' childhoods are different from human ones. Almost all the time is devoted to sports and/or education. Sportacus behaves terribly awkwardly with Stephanie, and I'd like to understand how she recognized him in this form. Impossible level of spider-sense.

But I'm more interested in the possibility of actually writing a fanfic where Sportacus is the same age as the children and for some reason ends up in LazyTown as a teenager. He'd probably look like Peter Pan (in appearance) or Jives (a character cut from the series who considered Sportacus his idol).

New Superhero II! This is where the fun begins. I cannot wait to watch this episode, it's a complete and super masterpiece!!

The episode begins with an Australian-exclusive title card featuring the LazyTown logo, the DVD title logo, and Part Two in orange.

Robbie is in his lair, making a big speech about his plan to.. nobody. Why does he always actively do this when nobody is listening? Robbie says that if Sportacus wants trouble, he'll get trouble with four legs, a tail and big teeth. The robodog will attack when anybody at all says 'Trouble'. Yes, anyone, even Robbie. Robbie starts crafting it, and it looks exactly like the plan.

For the laziest dude in town, must've taken him a lot of time to get the materials for the robodog, hmm? Anyways, it works as it's supposed to, and Robbie has so much fun flipping the switch he sings the song 'Woof Woof Woof'. A pretty funny song. Meanwhile, Sportacus is wearing headphones and is (forced to be) listening to Trixie's Mix which is bass and drums and bass. It's not really Sportacus' style, but I thought it was pretty good! Never knew she had musical 'talent'!!!

Robbie has a Sportacus cutboard cutout and he puts his face in it and tempts the dog. LOL. So he brings it up into town. Meanwhile, Sportastephanie shows the kids her outfit, and Trixie says it's good.. NOT! Why was this an insult in the 2000s..? This is so out of character for a kids show. Then comes one of the most epic lines from Stephanie.

While Stephanie is deciding who to save first, Milford is cleaning his house with a feather duster and he sneezes, causing it to fall out the window. She dives into the bushes and saves the so-called cat.

So, her friends are being complete jerks, laughing but she shrugs it off. Me personally, I'd do a huge frontflip and purposefully kick them in the face. Meanwhile, Sportacus is reading some Latabæ comics with Jive on the cover and decides to put on his headphones. Now playing - some actual fricking good workout music to accidentally tempt Sporty. Here comes a funny sequence where he does sit-ups. Robbie is looking for him behind the wall and bobs up every time Robbie looks away. XD!

PAL screencaps, LOL! -chuft. Gosh darn blended frames. So anyways, the kids are chatting and Trixie says that she has a feeling not much'll happen today, so Stephanie won't have to do any REAL saving. In comes Robbie asking where Sportakook is.

Sportacook'd be a great nickname for a LazyTown cooking show (which SHOULD have happened in 2014-15..). Anyways, when the kids tell him Sportacus is on vacation, he says there is never a super hero when you need one. Then Stephanie introduces herself and Robbie starts bursting into laughter.

Her friends who had just acted like complete jerks to her start wondering what's so funny and why he's funny. Stephanie says he is taking over for Sportacus just in case there is any trouble. (She points her finger up and Robbie mocks her, which genuinely made me laugh out loud.) Then the Robo Dog attacks, and like a true hero.. she runs away.

Robbie likes the outcome of the robo dog so much he decides to get an ice-cream. He wants to get a DOUBLE scoop, but the dog looks at him. He says the sentence, 'I said double, not trouble!' which could be a possible reference to season two, episode four, 'Double Trouble'. So anyways the dog attacks, Robbie runs past Sportacus who has done 1000 sit-ups and is going to go back to relaxing.

Robbie is running back to the lair, trying to get back in, but instead he climbs up the billboard (the robo-dog nearly bit his posterior multiple times, XD) but is too scared to come down. Stingy says they're really in trouble and the dog starts barking. SOMEHOW Stephanie realizes that dog goes cuckoo because of the T-word. So they climb in the treehouse.

Stingy sounds like a girl when he squeals. He must sound extra extra girly in the British dub. Stephanie decides to do something about it, but once the dog approaches her she starts squealing and running. Meanwhile, Robbie realizes he is stuck on the billboard and he starts talking to himself about how birds'll build nests in his hair and he'll be called the Billboard Guy. (Is it true that people of Robbie's age talk to themselves this much?) Sportacus hears Robbie's cries of help.

Sportacus decides to end the vacation early and check the trouble out. I think it is ridiculous he finds out about the trouble ten minutes after the kids all start yelling. He puts the crystal back in, and he almost says the T-word. Stephanie smacks him on the mouth, which I thought was funny.

So, she fills him in and they jump on the wall, cartwheeling (might've been JRM) and flipping (that wasn't JRM) over to the treehouse. Sportacus puts up the ladder so Stephanie walks on her hands to the treehouse to save the kids.

Sportacus goes to save Robbie. Meanwhile, Stephanie hooks the rope in the treehouse (this is ridiculous plot armor, the rope was never even there!) to her back and she goes down. Trixie lowers her down. Sportacus saves Robbie by running, dropping the ladder and doing a flip in the air.

So he tries to save him but when he holds out his hand he thinks that HE IS TRYING TO HIT HIM until Sporty picks him up. Sportacus tells him to slide down the ladder (which could go wrong in so much ways) Then he sits back down thinking it's a trick. So then he puts his hand out.. and grabs onto Sportacus' leg.

So Sportacus decides to pick up Robbie and throw him down the ladder. When he is finished sliding, he yells out 'Mommy!'. It's always funny to see grown men acting like babies.

Meanwhile, at the treehouse, Trixie has pulled Stephanie down and she is face to face with the Robo Dog. Sportacus' crystal beeps and he calls for a football. He throws the ball in the dog's mouth and Stephanie flips the switch.

Sportacus yells to Stephanie he'll be right there, but he won't because Robbie has took away the ladder so he can't get off the billboard. Robbie just tried to get Sportacus hurt after he got saved by him and Tumblr fans still ship the two. So Stephanie deliberately throws the ball at Robbie's head and knocks him out. This is the first time I've seen Stephanie hurt someone on purpose! (Maybe she wanted it to hit the ladder..?)

So the kids that were doubting here are congratulating her and complimenting her, but she thanks Sportacus (who gives her his football) first. She apologizes for ruining his vacation and he says that saving people is the best vacation ever, which doesn't really make sense.

Anyways, Stephanie jokingly says she needs a vacation, and they sing an extended version of Bing Bang. The episode ends with a minute worth of pre-credit endings from Sporty, Stephanie and Robbie. Robbie's dragging the Robo Dog to his lair, and he says that it's nothing but trouble.. and he activates it by doing so.

Stephanie writes in her diary before going to bed, Sportacus does some pushups and flips in his bed, and Robbie goes to bed.. in the dog house. Why did he even have it? The episode ends.

That episode was totally awesome. 10/10. Nothing more said.

I haven't spoken about lazytown since i was @stingyislife420 in middle school, but I would just like to say, i would kill for a theoretical lazytown reboot, but taken in a 'Riverdale' or route, or taken down a 'My Hero' path. Just a edgy teen drama, or Stephanie needing to become the next sportacus after #10 gets taken down(???) by something. Or it could be similar to All Might and Deku; AFO and Shigaraki but as #10 and Stephanie; Robbie Rotten's protege and Robbie Rotten.

I also would love for the 'kids' to have grown up, but their old personalities still shine through at times. AND I would love to see Jives and Penny be added in just for fun.

You know what, this is gonna be my next writing project.
